Revenue Run Rate Calculator

About this calculator

A revenue run rate takes performance from a shorter period and projects it forward to estimate what a full year would look like at that same pace — most simply, monthly revenue × 12 or quarterly revenue × 4. It answers the question 'if this recent period repeated all year, what would annual revenue be?'

Run rate is especially popular among startups and SaaS companies as a fast stand-in for annual recurring revenue (ARR) before a full year of data exists, useful for pitching investors or tracking momentum month to month. It's most reliable for stable, non-seasonal businesses — a single unusually strong or weak month can distort the annualized figure, so it's best read as a directional estimate rather than a guaranteed forecast. This calculator takes your revenue for a short period and returns the projected annual run rate.
